The theme for this blog hop was “Anything but a card” so I decided to create a Box Frame with Hydrangea Hill Products.

My Project

A Home Decor Box Frame using products from the Hydrangea Hill suite and other coordinating products.

I have a couple of Box Frames standing on top of one of my units and one was due a refresh. The beautiful piece of Designer Series paper in the Hydrangea Hill pack with the large panel of blooms, was the perfect starting point.

  • Tools: Hydrangea Dies, Brilliant Wings Dies, Playful Alphabet Dies
  • Paper/Card: Basic White; Hydrangea Hill DSP, Butterfly Bijou DSP; Rococo Rose; Seaside Spray; Gorgeous Grape
  • Embellishments: Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon; Pastel Pearls
  • Adhesives; Multipurpose Liquid Glue; Glue Dots

Gorgeous Grape, Rococo Rose and Seaside Spray for Dies

Instructions

  • Stick the two panels of paper to the square of Basic White to create the background.
  • Wrap a length of ribbon around the card where the two papers meet and attach to the back.
  • Die cut the small blossoms from Seaside Spray , Rococo Rose and Gorgeous Grape card stock. Using dots of glue, stick to the blooms on the background.
  • Die cut the word “friends” from Rococo rose and Gorgeous Grape cardstock using the Playful Alphabet dies. Stick them together so the Rococo Rose creates a shadow effect behind the Gorgeous Grape.
  • Stick them in place on the background, following the curve of the flowers on the paper.
  • Using the Brilliant Wings dies, cut out a butterfly from the Butterfly Bijou DSP. Curve the wings slightly with a bone folder and then stick to the background, just applying glue down the body section.
  • Add a bow of the sheer ribbon with a glue dot and finish with some pearls.
  • Put the design into a 18cm / 7″ Box frame.
  • You could use this design as a large card front if you choose to.
The flowers in this Box frame are given a 3D look by the addition of die cut blooms from the Hydrangea hill suite of products from Stampin' Up

Let’s Hop

The Hydrangea Hill products are combined with the Brilliant Wings and Playful Alphabet dies to create this Box frame
